Mark Hughes is back at Southampton after being appointed as their new manager shortly before close of play last night, replacing Mauricio Pellegrino, who was sacked on Monday evening.

Sparky made 60 appearances for the Saints during the latter years of his playing career, finding himself deployed as a grizzled midfield veteran as the club narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League on the final day of the 1998/99 season.
